Day 18: Tues Dec 29: Woods Pt to Burnt Bridge 81km

Late up, we scoffed bacon and eggs before heading down to the creek with Fleur ("Fleur-mingo"), for a spot of White Water Flamingoing....! We decided it should be a new Olympic sport!

The dogs loved it too. And so did Laura's iPhone when it fell in!! Luckily it still works. Phew!

 

 

And then, just as we were really getting into it, we rounded a bend and there it was... A Swan!!!  Fleur couldn't believe her eyes! A rare sighting. However he seemed to be sleeping so we quietly floated away downstream. 

We spent the rest of the day playing in the water with the dogs and teaching Spike to swim...

It was the best day EVER. in the winter it snows up there and it would be amazing to see. It is the most beautiful place and we can't wait to go back. 

We had homemade Jamieson beef snags for dinner and we burned all the rubbish the hooligans had left behind before putting the rest into bags and taking it with is. Which is what they should've done themselves in the first place. Mongrels. Sometimes we feel ashamed to be part of the human race.
